THE FALL DANCE

9-30-09...THE FALL DANCE

Softly in amber slippers, Fall dances round'.
All green leaves quickly change colors,
then float softly to the ground.
Colors of red, orange, yellow, and gold.
A breathtaking sight of this season.
The grandeur of Octobers splendor.
Such a beautiful sight to behold.
Fall brings to me a smile, waving her colorful wand.
Everything blanketed with magnificence,
as far as my eyes can see..... and beyond.
Then just as quickly as she danced in,
so does she drift away.
We sense the coming of winter and more briskness every day.
Fall then dances out of her slippers, and gently sleeps again.
The air is cold....... the wind whistles,
and winters snow begins.
